Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010130960A2] The invention relates to a method for transferring fluids between a first ship, called a barge (1), and a second ship (2), called a shuttle, according to which the shuttle is positioned at a pre-determined distance from the barge (1), and a flexible fluid transfer conduit (7) is guided from the barge to the shuttle (2). The method is characterised in that the shuttle (2) is placed in a position wherein the shuttle is laterally offset from the barge (1) while being essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the barge, and a fluid transfer system (7, 9, 28) is provided, which enables the shuttle to be moved in the lateral and longitudinal directions in relation to the barge, during a transfer. The invention can be used for the transfer of liquefied natural gas.
